I've partially got my projects building but have a
few questions. I get the following error when building a program that relies on
a static lib.

Can some one remind me why "configure"'s temporary directory is in
/tmp (or $TMPDIR) rather than in the current directory? If we put the
temporary directory in "." then this problem would go away.

So it's an annoying yet expected message.

POSIX says that FreeBSD "mv" conforms, and that Solaris "/bin/mv" and
GNU "mv" do not conform. You can see the sad news in step 5 of:

Some versions of ls don't print the group name by default:

You can add "-g" to fix that, but I bet the

You're a brave man; not many people use that.
Why do you need AM_ICONV? Are you using iconv directly? Typically,

You don't mention the Autoconf version. Was your "configure" generated
by Autoconf 2.54? It has some fixes

In my current configure.in I create new substitution variables for each
library that may be optionally included. For example, a test might set:
LIBFOO_CPPFLAGS = "-Ifoo/include"
LIBFOO_LDFLAGS = "-Lfoo/lib"
LIB_FOO_LIBS= "-lfoo"
The problem is then in Makefile.in I do something like

This seems to be a problem with 'mv' on the system and autoconf is
just suffering f

You should configure both packages using the same --prefix.
Choose either /usr or /usr/

This bug has been present with previous versions of automake and
autoconf (IIRC, it also has been reported several times before).
Anyway, it is still
